    Bluetooth Dongle feels extremely fragile. Dialogue and general music listening: “S”s hurt my ears. Low-end was very quiet (no bass; it was very hard for me to hear. I’m a basshead and love to hear that depth of range but it felt really shallow). I’m not sure if it’s to balance out the fact that it has a built in mic… the general quality for voice was 8/10. Buttons are easy to use and the thing has a lot of solid features. Paired to my pc, ps5, iphone, and switch with relative ease. Just make sure whatever you’re trying to pair has a USB-A or USB-C port. Soundscape was decent but again, the depth felt shallow with the bass range even when plugged in. great headset to get on sale.

    As the review title says the audio quality when gaming, watching movies, during work phone calls and/or meetings is all great. However, the mic ALWAYS pipes through the headphones even when it is fully retracted into the headset itself. Which means when I wear a hoodie & game and the mic brushes across my hoodie I can hear the audio of it looping back through the headphones. Not a good experience really. I have played around with the app on iOS and Android both and it doesn't appear like there is a way to stop this from occurring. Bummer. I really love the various EQ settings for the headphones though. It has a long list (I'd even venture to call it a huge list) of EQs for specific games & scenarios. These range from specific to music, to specific for movies, to NBA, to numerous CoD games, to CS:Go, CS2, Cyberpunk2077, FIFA, iRacing, Minecraft, World of Tanks, War Thunder, World of Warcraft (WoW), and so on. It is insanely robust and really nice. I wish my various other headsets had this functionality. I just cannot get over the mic audio loopback even when retracted and muted on my end. Maybe I am doing something wrong and just haven't figured it out, it's possible. But if that is the case then surely others have the same problem too? I have even turned down the microphone volume to 0 within the app and still no resolution. It is really disappointing. I wanted to love these, and the truth is I just barely even like them and it's because of the vast array of EQs found within the app. I guess it will be back to searching for a 7.1+ Surround Sound headphones, with a good mic, that doesn't cause my ears or head to experience fatigue and that will last. *Sigh*

    DONT BUY

    Bought this headset, coming from the arctis steel series 7. Can 100 percent confirm this thing sucks. Constantly disconnects, mic sometimes is horrible. Nothing about this headset is good. The older steel series were way better, they tried to do too much.
